Round and round

ROUND ONE: It rained heavily all day, so I couldn't go out and play in the garden.  I decided to play in the kitchen instead.  Taking inspiration from Gwen, I made paneer, a firm Indian cheese.  Breaking with tradition and wanting an excuse to use chives that are growing in leaps and bounds, I added some to the milk just before it reached a boil and ended up with chive paneer.  Instead of a perfect round, mine looks more like a hat...it took on the shape of the colander and cloth as it was draining...

ROUND TWO: I found a few more pieces of beach glass to add to my bowl of fragile hearts...

ROUND THREE: Even though I've lugged home tons of rocks, there's always certain ones that call out to me and find their way into my pockets...

And not round, but worthy of a haiku...

I have a heart-rock collection too. And I also collect those rocks w/the line going around them. My grand daughter told me that the Indians believe that if the line goes all the way around the rock, it brings good luck.
I also read years ago that Native Americans believe that when you find a heart of stone...you will always find your way back home. (Home being where we all came from). Your beach glass hearts are amazing!
